NEISSERIA ANTIGENE PEPTIDES Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C07K14/22 C12N15/31 A61K39/95 G01N33/53 A61P31/00 

FIELD: biotechnology, microbiology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates, in particular, to antigene peptide sequences from microorganism Neisseria meningitides and N. gonorrhoeae. Described proteins comprise fragment of one or more Neisseria proteins with the definite amino acid sequence and the definite amount of amino acid residues (amino acid sequences are given in the invention description). Also, invention describes nucleic acids encoding indicated proteins and their using in preparing a medicinal agent used in treatment and prophylaxis of infection caused by neisseria. Use of protein and nucleic acids as components of the diagnostic reagent for detection of neisseria or antibodies raised to neisseria is proposed. Invention describes the immunogenic composition based on protein or nucleic acids for preparing specific antibodies and its using in treatment of the corresponding infection. Using the invention provides preparing protein vaccines showing effectiveness with respect to N. meningitidis B.

EFFECT: improved preparing method, valuable medicinal properties of peptides.
